simultaneous dislocation of both interphalangeal (ip) joints of same finger is a highly uncommon finding. and dislocation of metacarpophalangeal (mcp) joint along with interphalangeal joints of thumb are reported in literatures if, scarcely. here we are reporting the three cases, comprising of double dislocation of ip joints in little finger in two patients and simultaneous mcp and ip joint dis...

BTB-zinc finger transcription factors play many important roles in metazoan development. In these proteins, the BTB domain is critical for dimerization and for recruiting cofactors to target genes. Identification of these cofactors is important for understanding how BTB-zinc finger proteins influence transcription. Here we show that the novel but conserved protein EOR-2 is an obligate binding p...

The recent trends for house appliance devices are moving towards the natural interaction that ensures free-cumbering interaction with these human-made devices, we have presented herein our novel approach for features extraction template that enables such devices to interact in better way especially when gesturing to vision-based devices such as home TV, these vision-based devices preferred over...

A meta-analysis was performed to understand the role of zinc finger domains in proteins of resistance (R) genes cloned from different crops. We analyzed protein sequences of seventy R genes of various crops in which twenty six proteins were found to have zinc finger domains along with nucleotide binding sites - leucine rice repeats (NBS-LRR) domains. We identified thirty four zinc finger domain...

mRNA export factor 1 (Rae1) and nucleoporin 98 (Nup98) are host cell targets for the matrix (M) protein of vesicular stomatitis virus (VSV). How Rae1 functions in mRNA export and how M protein targets both Rae1 and Nup98 are not understood at the molecular level. To obtain structural insights, we assembled a 1:1:1 complex of M•Rae1•Nup98 and established a crystal structure at 3.15-Å resolution....

GATA transcription factors are a group of DNA binding proteins broadly distributed in eukaryotes. The GATA factors DNA binding domain is a class IV zinc finger motif in the form CX(2)CX(17-20)CX(2)C followed by a basic region. In plants, GATA DNA motifs have been implicated in light-dependent and nitrate-dependent control of transcription. Herein, we show that the Arabidopsis and the rice (Oryz...

The illegitimate access to biometric templates is one of the major issues be handled for authentication systems. In this work, we propose use two instances finger vein images which inherits advantages a robust multi-modal system without needing different sensors. Two local texture feature extraction methods are experimented on standard finger-vein datasets. Fused discriminating features with re...

OBJECTIVES Different patterns of invasion (representing different grades of tumor cell dissociation) are associated with prognostic outcome in cancer. We evaluated the prognostic value of different patterns of invasion (PI) in cervical carcinomas (CX). METHODS Six hundred eleven surgically treated CX (FIGO IB to IIB) were re-evaluated histologically regarding the PI, using a three-level scori...

BACKGROUND To evaluate the pathological characteristics of invasive margins in early-stage cervical squamous cell carcinomas and their association with other clinicopathological features including clinical outcomes. MATERIALS AND METHODS Patients with FIGO stage IB-IIA cervical squamous cell carcinomas who received surgical treatment and had available follow-up information were identified. Th...
